Document Summary
Problem set # 1 math review -- due friday, september 12. This is the first of six problem sets that will count towards your final grade. The problem set is due at the start of lecture on friday, september 12th. You may work in groups of up to three people. Please hand in one assignment per group with up to three names listed. Staple multiple pages together no paper clips or folded corners as sheets inevitably get lost. Note that pr(at least one a) = pr(a from mum. Or a from dad). (2 marks: use the binomial distribution to calculate the probability that 6 of 7 offspring of an aa male and aa female will have the aa genotype. 165 individuals were ff, 190 were fs, and 45 were ss. A 1: estimate pf and ps. Derive your answer first for the general case (i. e. using ps and pf).
